The word 'ISLAM' came from the Arabic word 'Salam' and Aramaic 'Selam' which means 'Peace'. It also means Submission. The word 'Islam' means Submission (your will) to ONE God. So the basic principle of Islam is propagade that there is only ONE God. Then those who are part of this Religion are known as Muslims. Muslims means 'The one who Submit to One God or Worship One God.' Jesus Christ who is known as Son of God among Christians was also a Muslim because he worship one God.
Islam isn't the new religion brought by Prophet Muhammad (the final Prophet Jesus promised in Gospel of John as Comforter). It was the same Religion of all Prophets from Adam to Noah to Abraham to Isaac, Ishmael, Moses, David, Solomon, Jesus, John etc. Islam has basically five pillars.
1. Faith (in One God)
2. Prayer (5 times a day)
3. Fasting (for 30 days in a year)
4. Alm Giving (Charity to poor)
5. Pilgrimage (Depend on Finance and Health)
The first pillar of Islam is WORSHIPPING ONE GOD and that's the mainthing. According to Bible and the Qur'an (scripture of Islam) God is ONE and he doesn't like anyone to associate partners with him. Second in Christianity Jesus has taken in some sects and dominations as GOD. Which is not true, because Jesus never claimed to be God, he was the Creation of God. God cannot be born of womb of Woman, he cannot eat, go for the toilet, tempted by Devil and Die.
According to Islam Jesus wasn't crucified on the Cross instead he escaped death by skin of his teeth and he will testify it in his second coming. He will preach Islam after his return and unite Muslims and Christians in the shadow of Islam.
In Islam you have Faith and Proves that you're the right way, Quran came since 1400 years ago in arabic and all the non muslims '' historians, priests, rabbis, and so on....." admits that Quran has never been changed with the original language "Arabic" which spoken by about 280 million person and there are millions of Muslims worldwide have memorised the holy Quran, how many christians memorised the bible ?? Now if we throw all the bibles, Torahs, and all the hindu and the buddhist scriptures and we throw all the Quran (i mean all the books) in the ocean the Quran is the only one that in a matter in a day or two would be brought right back because it has been memorized from cover to cover.
Since 1400 yrs the Quran challenge all the non believers to find a single mistake in it or to bring a small chapter like it but no one did it. God put in the Quran many scientific and historical facts which some of it discovered only in our age with the super powerful telescopes and microscopes and the other inventions, like the Big Bang Theory - the creation of mankind - The Expanding Universe - Pharaoh's Body - The Rotating Universe - Geology - Hydrology - Oceanogr - and more ...
We all know The Big Bang Theory!! Well It is mentioned in the Quran:
“He (God) is the Originator of the heavens and the earth…” (Quran 6:101)
“Is not He who created the heavens and the earth Able to create the likes of them? Yes; and He is the Knowing Creator. His command is only when He intends a thing that He says to it, ‘Be,’ and it is.” (Quran 36:81-82)
The above verses prove that the universe had a beginning, that God was behind its creation, and all that God needs to do inorder to create is to say “Be,” and it is. Could this be an explanation as to what triggered off the explosion that brought about the beginning of the universe?
The Quran also mentions:
“Have those who disbelieved not considered that the heavens and the earth were a joined entity, then We separated them, and made from water every living thing?Then will they not believe?”(Quran 21:30)
The Quran mentioned it 1400 years ago and if you noticed there is another miracle in last verse: ''and made from water every living thing''
This is what we have discovered in our day of super powerful microscopes, that every living thing is made of water, isn't it the truth?
recently discovered using Advanced Audio Technology that Ants do indeed talk to each others as the Holy Quran Stated 1400 ago
"At length, when they came to a (lowly) valley of ants, one of the ants said: "O ye ants, get into your habitations, lest Solomon and his hosts break you (under foot) without knowing it. (The Noble Quran, 27:18)"
God tells the people who reject his message that when they are in Hell and their skins are burnt off (so they can’t feel any pain), he will give them new skins so that they continue to feel the pain.
The Quran makes it clear that pain is dependent upon on the skin. The discovery of pain receptors in the skin is a fairly recent discovery for Biology. For a long time it was thought that the sense of feeling and pain was dependent on the brain. However it has been discovered that there are pain receptors present in the skin[18].Without these pain receptors,a person wouldn't be able to feel pain.
Consider the following verse on pain
We shall send those who reject Our revelations to the (Hell) Fire. When their skins have been burned away,We shall replace them with new ones so that they may continue to feel the pain:God is Almighty,All-Wise. [4:56]
Iron is not natural to the earth. It did not form on the earth but came down to earth from outer space. This may sound strange but it’s true. Scientists have found that billions of years ago the earth was stuck by meteorites. These meteorites were carrying Iron from distant stars which had exploded [5].
The Quran says the following on the origin of Iron:
We sent down Iron with its great inherent strength and its many benefits for humankind [57:25]
God uses the words ‘sent down’ for Iron. It is clear from the verse that Iron is not an earthly material, but was sent down for the benefit of humanity. The fact that Iron came down to earth from outer space, is something which could not be known by the primitive science of the 7th century.
The Quran draws our attention to a very important characteristic of mountains:
Did We not make the earth a resting place? And the mountains as stakes? [78:6-7]
The Quran indicates that mountains have deep roots by using the word stakes to describe them. In fact mountains do have deep roots [7], and the word stakes is an accurate description for them.
A book titled ‘Earth’ by Geophysicist Frank Press explains that mountains are like stakes, and are buried deep under the surface of the earth [8].Mount Everest (pictured below), the height of which is approximately 9 km above ground, has a root deeper than 125 km.
The fact that mountains have deep ‘stake’ like roots was not known, until after the development of the theory of plate tectonics in the beginning of the 20th century [9].
For centuries it was thought that the frontal part of the human brain handled vision (simply because it is near the eyes). Today we know that this part does not handle vision. The part that handles vision turned out to be at the rear of the brain (enlarge image). The front part of the brain is called the prefrontal vortex and is responsible for concocting lies: Pathological liars have more prefrontal white matter.
"A lying sinful forehead." [Quran 96.16]
The Quran says that disbelievers will be dragged from there liar forehead, that is, the part where they concoct lies is at the forehead. How could an illiterate man who lived 1400 years ago have known that the front part of the brain handles lies?
We all know that The Prophet Muhammad was illiterate, SO how could an Illiterate man who lived in the Desert more than 1400 years ago know these kind of Informations ???
the bible says (Isaiah 29:12)
''And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.''
Mohammed (pbuh) in the only prophet when being given the message of God says ''im not learned''
The Quran is not a book of science, but that it is consistent with science. There are scientific and historical facts found in the Quran which were unknown to the people at the time, and have only been discovered recently by contempory science. And that for many reasons and to prove that The Quran is the word of God is one of them
And still there are so many miracles that can convince any scientist or historian, atheist, logical person or whatever and that's prove that Quran sent from The Real God for all human being
